Paleo Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is this Thursday. And I’m sure some of you will be eying Grandma’s stuffing. I hope everyone has a great feast with family and friends. Here are some great ideas that you can share with them and show that Paleo cooking doesn’t have to be boring.

Turkey: Pretty Paleo as it stands

Stuffin’ Ideas

• Option #1 – I like the Pork & Apple Stuffing the best!
• Option #2 – Another great option.

Sweet Potato Cassarole

• Amazing!
• Sweet Potato Casserole redo
  – About 2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks, steamed for 20 minutes then mashed
  – 2 eggs
  – 1/2 cup coconut milk
  – 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  – 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  – 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  – juice from one orange
  – 1/4 teaspoon orange zest
  – 3/4 – 1 cup crushed pecans, toasted
  Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine sweet potatoes with all ingredients except pecans. Place in casserole dish, and top with pecans. Bake for about 30 minutes or until firm. If you absolutely positively MUST (& no you really don’t) have this sweeter, then add some honey to the potatoes.

Cranberry sauce

• Also has another stuffing idea!

Pumpkin Pie

• One more to try!

Candied Pecans

• Last but not least

Have a Wonderful Thanksgiving celebration and be ready to get back after the break! Be thankful for everything life as to offer, especially all of your family and friends.
